Console Issue & Side Lock Question

[TSX69]

When I press the right button, which is supposed to lift the upper tray along w/ the lid to expose the storage compartment ... the latch does not quite catch right & the upper tray falls back down about half way up. Does anyone else have this issue?

Also, I notice that the power lock on the passenger door never works for me. Is there some kind of safety feature that keeps this working only in certain situations?

Just thought I would ask here before I took it in ...

Thanks

I don't think we've heard of any problem with the power lock on the passenger door before.

But ALL KINDS of problems are very common with that "tray" thing.
I have it myself (and even worse than what you say). Even after it was fixed, it's a problem again.

Personal note to vpat:

We know that you don't care a heck of a lot for this site.
In fact, I wonder what the hey you're doing here at all. I dunno, maybe you just enjoy being unique and one-of-a-kind.
Which you are.
One thing about this "shitty ass forum" is that we haven't had any trolls, for a real long time. None at all.
At least until you got here.

And I think even you would have to admit that not to many "shitty ass forums" would even ALLOW somebody like you to continue being here.

So I guess it's not so shitty-ass after all.

BTW.......None of this is personal on my part.
In fact, I'm flattered that you think I have much to do with the success of this site.


P.S. Did you have anything to say about what the original poster asked?
If not, you're on the wrong thread.

I took my ride in & they fixed the passenger lock -- said it was a loose connector.

They had to order a hinge to correct the center console & will fix it next week.

Finally, even tho I have had the rattle fixed once before, there is now a new one that is even louder but they could not find it :whyme:

my console was messed up too. When i tried to lift it up to gain access to just the upper tray, the whole thing would open. The only thing they did was but some grease on the hinge, i'm waiting for the problem to start up again soon.

It might.
As I said, mine did. So I told them about it, and the last time I brought the car in (2 weeks ago), they REPLACED the whole thing, which I think involves 2 parts.
So far, so good. But we'll see.

I realize that 1) this is a European Accord and 2) this is entry level/near luxury so I am not expecting the perfection that I would from say a Lexus LS. HOWEVER, if Acura seriously wants to be considered a luxury car maker they might wanna work on these things.

@ least it is nothing major, I reckon.
